Elbow Architects design homes that respond to the environment and reflect how you want to live.

We pride ourselves on creating spaces that not only reflect the use of that space, but how that space occupies the natural landscape. Our designs are unique, adaptable, and above all, functional.

We focus on understanding your needs, all aspects of the site and the surrounding environment. We take into consideration how you want to live, your budget and pull this all together to create thoughtful and captivating architectural homes.

We like to take on interesting and challenging projects and always welcome a conversation to kick around an inspirational idea you might have.

We work throughout New Zealand, with a focus on Auckland, Christchurch, and Central Otago.

The principal architect, Julia Mercer, has broad experience in New Zealand and Canada. She is highly skilled in design and project management, taking you on a seamless journey from concept design through to your completed build. We aim to make the process of designing and building an exciting and enjoyable experience for our clients.
